Hi,

I am looking for my first tent, a family tent designed for 5-6 people although in reality there will only be 3 of us wanting comfort and space. I'm completely new to this and looking for a showroom where we can view some tents from companies such as Outwell, Vango, Gelert etc etc.

We live in Cardiff, are there any near us?

Kind regards,

Matt

abc camping in swansea have a nice showroom, if you just want to look. although i wouldn't recommend buying from them, in my experience they are not very competitive and very rude people. but if you fancy an hours drive i highly recommend http://www.somersetcamping.co.uk/ all the tents are pitched outside, very competitive prices and very nice people. good luck in your search.

I agree with reg, abc swansea, (next to Adsa) have a good indoor tent display, but don't buy off them.

 OBI is in cowbridge

JCP is port talbot, and

this one in bridgend, but  I don't know if any of them have tents up on display .worth phoning to check.

ABC at swansea - great show room,  Discover at Newport have some tents on display now, Gwent Camping at Newport has a great display too - so no real reason to leave Wales but if you do fancy a drive then Highbridge Caravans have plenty of tents on display.

Camping and Kite Centre, near Raglan Monmouthshire, usually about 30 tents on display and a friendly family business.

Another vote for Somerset Camping, they have aggod selection and are great to deal with.

Gwent camping in Newport used to have a big selection on display. Friends of mine bought one in Millets in Queen Street and had it delivered!
